Peebles 19 Boroughmuir 45

Yet Peebles did create three tries of their own, and for a full 35 minutes of the second half they denied Boroughmuir any foothold after a first period in which the Edinburgh side appeared to be able to score at will.

Tries by Angus Martyn, James Reilly, Dan Cunningham, Ben Fisher and Callum Cusiter had given Boroughmuir a 31-5 half-time lead.

And it seemed a second half of pain was in store for Peebles, but they brought on all four substitutes at the start of the half and looked like they might hold Boroughmuir off before Steve Briers and Matt Morrell touched down late scores. Graeme Kiddie notched five conversions for the visitors.
